Although we are both very active on the Mixtape front we’ve asked some friends to make a mix for us to put on our Podcast page. All of them are people we respect a lot and have influenced us musically and often even beyond that. Not all are as hardcore dj’s as we are. Some of them are (mainly) collectors or simply lovers of good music. The common factor is that we have crazy respect for their knowledge and / or skills. Some of them have influenced us more than the Benji B’s, Theo Parrish’s or Dimitri From Paris’ of this world.

First one in this series is a mix made by Nick Blow. An Englishman living in Brussels who’ve we met a couple a years ago through our common love for quality Soulful parties (he’s a Southport Weekender legend). Since then we’ve been slowly discovering his vast knowledge of the music we adore, his many experiences and friends. He has introduced us to Rainer Trüby, Phil Cooper, Blaze, Boddhi Satva and Roger Sastre for example.

When we were invited into his record room early this year, more than a little impressed, we didn’t have to think twice about asking him if he could make us a mixtape. The result is a very nice vocal House mix that’s been on constant repeat ever since I’ve got it. Schooling us again.

A big thanks to Nick for the mix and everything else. And a big up to the Blow family. All loving the good music as much as we do.

If you’ll burn this mix on a CD you can download a sleeve design here.
